The shit these range officers put up on a daily basis has to add up over time.

Do I look like a massive faggot when I shoot as fast as I can with my handgun?
Sometimes I just like watching all of my money fly downrange without caring where I hit the target.

>>28493333

If it was her first time shooting, then this asshole deserved it.

>>28492957
My cousin Corey was dating some guy in Sacramento back in the 90s.
One day at the range he turned and shot someone else and then shot himself in the head.

Stovepiping. If he doesn't take care of it, then the slide doesn't cycle all the way and round gets stuck in the extractor. You have to re-rack the slide and you have a round chambered so you need to drop the mag.

Congrats?

All these stories make me legitimately afraid of/disgusted by the notion of going to a public range.
Which sucks because I'll be innacity in about a year (hopefully) and don't know where the fuck I'll be able to shoot.

>>28496479
And that's why you always critique broshooting at the range

>>28496581
Which city? East coast? You might have to drive a bit to get to a good range but its worth it IMO.

>>28493333
I like magdumping, but not at ranges. I only go to ranges if I go with new people so they feel safer.

Checked as well senpai

>>28493003
I saw the same thing happen but they had a laser sight so I'm not sure what their problem was

>>28496707
I just returned a laser site on my pistol. It made my aim atrocious.

Everything went cool until some dude showed up in the lane next to me with a NFA Mac11 and did a full magdump, scaring the shit out of me while also destroying one of the target carriers.

>>28496581
Jeron?

>>28493003
I hate to admit but im one of those guys.
being a novice is a bitch. I expect that bullet to go where the sights are aligned up, but I keep tensing up and gripping harder in anticipation of the recoil.

If I can put 100 shots at 5 yards within the colored target area I consider that a victory.

>>28493329
>The shit these range officers put up on a daily basis has to add up over time

This right here. And people wonder why RO's are all assholes.

>>28492985
they are actually pretty easy to jam if you arent holding it tight. a loose wrist will make pretty much any semi jam but glocks are maybe easier because of their lightweight polymer frame

>>28497037
>being on /k/
>not being able to put ten magazines into a dime at 500 yards one handed

I don't believe it

>>28493237
>range is clear
so in other words, range wasnt clear? did any shots go near the area where kid was hiding? who the fuck was his parent and why wasnt the parent accounting for him?

You seem to be perfectly capable of putting your rounds in the middle, but for some reason, you seem to shoot all over the place, as if you didn't care.

>>28497154
9mm?

Looks like a trigger pull problem to me.

>>28497085
>when a kid gets shot
OMG WHERE WAS THE PARENT!?
>when a kid takes his parent's guns and shoots a bunch of people
FUCK YOU, PARENTS CANT BE EVERYWHERE!!

>>28497154
that was at 25 yards? if so thats pretty good honestly, i doubt most of /k/ could hit that at the standard pistol range of 15 yards

>>28497204
.357 magnum out of a 6 inch revolver. This is like the 3rd time ive shot. I'm probably gonna start shooting .38s until I get the hang of it.

>>28497216
no, i think the question is always OMG WHERE WAS THE PARENT

who the hell takes a kid to a shooting range and then loses track of him during the process of changing targets?

>>28496479
How old was the daughter? 13?

>>28497234
Well, goodluck.

Id post my targets, but i cleaned out my truck 2 days ago.

>>28497175
This. Fatigue? Lack of attention?

Looks like you're on the right track at least.

Remember, practice doesn't make perfect, perfect practice makes perfect. If you find yourself losing focus, do something else. Don't just keep wasting ammo. It's really easy to fall into the trap that as long as you're putting rounds downrange, you're improving...but if you aren't actually putting the effort in then at best you're getting nowhere and at worst you're harming your skills.

Practice trigger control and sight picture at home. Use snap caps and just practice (in a safe direction still) against a wall in your room every day.

>>28497234
pretty good for 357. what revolver model? 38s are easy as hell to shoot out of a steel full sized revolver, you will love it. try mixing up 357 and 38 in the cylinder as a drill to practice controlling your recoil flinch

>>28497224
no, thats just what the target is called. this was probably at 5-7 yards

I'm so fucking jelly or you has guns

I went to a range in Vegas on holiday and shooting was the most fun shit I've ever done. I shot a 1911 , Mp5 , M16 and an AR15 ( I think )

I wish I could just go to a local range and shoot shit. The range guy was cool too , was super enthusiastic and was probably overdoing the whole MURRICA YEAH GUNS angle because he saw we were tourists but still 10/10 experience

>>28497270
Thanks, Ill be sure to try that.

>>28497272
ruger security six

>>28497275
well its not terrible, especially considering you are a beginner and were shooting a higher recoiling round like 357. i think youre on your way, just keep practicing, youll get used to the trigger pull. focus on having a good stance, 99% of the people i see at the range (beginners or not) have improper stance, they are fighting their own balance. its an easy mistake to make because unless someone is watching you, it is easy to fall into a bad posture without noticing since you tend to be focusing on the target

any videos/images for proper stance? Gun ranges have the problem of a lot of outdated information being sold as factual. People still teach weaver stance like it's a good idea.

people dipping their head down is probably the most common mistake i see, and i am a victim of it myself from time to time. you always want to bring the gun UP to your line of sight, not compensate by moving your head forward/down

>>28497423

happened indeed. IT was opening day for the new indoor range and we went to show support.

I got a free leopold hat while waiting in line.

The black guy was having a really good time, we watched him on the archery range and he was actually really good. Still almost felt bad he paid full commiefornia price for a fucking high point.

I can draw a 5 2 inch circles and put the target at 25 yards and get 3 out of 5 bullets in the circle is that good? I did it with a 1911 the other day.

>>28497234
Are you shooting in DA or SA?

>>28493242
What a stupid fucking asshole. I hope the crown got gashed and ruins the accuracy.

This thread almost makes me miss living in New York. I had a 100 yard range in my parent's back yard and a 300yard range out in the woods. It was great because it was just me and occasionally my friends. Never had any close calls.

Now I live in Denver and well, things are different. Having to share a range with the general public sucks.

The worst I've seen was some middle aged guy showing off for his family...
>at 100 yard rifle range

whats wrong with that though? I can't imagine its unsafe, just uncomfortable for the guy plinking

Be me inn a shothing range that is pretty much a tunnel but it only goes a hundred yards into a mountain floor was concrete so the echo was beyond belief and i was shooting my glock 19 and the guy next ro me was shooting a 357 mag 1911 and I finished shoting and packed up and started to walk towards the bomb shelter looking doors with a small one room building right next to the opening and the kid(with Down syndrome) of the guy with the 1911 peeks his head out just as he gets his head out the door the guy with the 1911 fires off a round and the kid jumps back in the room and falls flat on his ass. Then i walked outside and laughed my fucking ass off.

Actually, in the interest of not being a douche despite your 'lel reading comprehension' remark, I'll explain a little more. NJ sucks for gun owners. The best outdoor range I can go to is in PA, 1.5 hours away. If I wanted to use the one range remotely near me (outdoor) in state, I need to do a ton of stupid shit, pay $250 for a member pass, have a bunch of flags and other nonsense on the gun when its not loaded, be limited to 2 rounds at a time, and from what epople have said on google-reviews, deal with cops hanging out nearby taking down plate numbers. Fuck. That.

I'd kill to live in Georgia.

If recoil is the issue, it wouldn't hurt to get a .22 to just refine the technique. 9/10 i take someone new shooting they enjoy the .22 more at the end of the day, and I can usually get their technique to be half decent.

Are you anticipating and correcting for recoil before it happens?

Try pulling the trigger slower, it'll help catch yourself anticipating and it'll help keep you from pulling up your dominant side

this happened when i worked at a BSA summer camp during staff week. the RSOs were fuckin around instead of getting their area in order and started shooting the camps pistols (ruger mark IIs). one of the retards hadnt ever shot before but apparently talked a lot of shit (prolly a /k/ommando) so the range master let him do his own thing.

loaded his mag alright but when he tried to put it in the pistol he put it in backwards. when it wouldnt seat he slapped it twice, then hit it on the range bench to try and make it seat properly.
nothing we did could get the mag to come loose so the range master ended up sticking it back in the case too get fixed later. no idea what became of that pistol. a couple weeks later the range master (think he was 28) professed his love to the camp directors 15 yearold daughter and got fired.

I have no idea if the kid had ever been shooting before but somehow giving a fucking 10 year old a handgun chambered in .50AE seems like a terrible idea to me. Haven't seen them at the range since.

>>28503406
Something like this. Take it slow and if you feel yourself starting to bias the shot, stop and reset. It might help to record yourself too since you'll miss a lot of things no matter how hard you focus.

Not a derp story, but I was impressed by this kid.

>At range a few days ago, only one on the rifle range, sitting on 50yard with with AR, drawing smiley faces because I've got nothing better to do, and was waiting on a buddy of mine to show up.

>Walk down range to get my smiley face and post up a new target, kid right next to me, tacks up a 1" grid target.
>Walk back, range called hot, I resume shooting but keep track of him out of the corner of my eye.
>He unpacks this absolutely gorgeous old Savage 110. Original stock, but it's been refinished by someone that knew what they were doing.
>Absolutely massive fucking vortex on top of it. 6-24x50.
>See ammo box. Hornady American Whitetail, 180 grain 30.06
>This kid is like 5'7", maybe a buck twenty soaking wet.
>Kid loads one round, shoulders it, front sitting on a sandbag. I'm just watching now.
>He leans forward, left hand laid on his right bicep, cheek firm on comb, both eyes open, staring through his glasses, finger resting gently on the boom button.
>Deep breath, in and out from him, don't even see his finger move and he's suddenly 6" back from where he was.
>Look down range and see he's about 4" high and 3" right.
>Kid adjusts scope, sends another.
>1" high, dead center.
>Hear four clicks, see him load 3 rounds, and he sends a 3shot group.
>Only one hole that I can see, dead fucking center.

I was impressed. Not only was it a nice gun with a nice scope, but he didn't flinch for an instant.

>Show up to pistol range same day a class in doing the range test for a CHL.

>The group is hilarious. Older Mexican lady who flinches every time a gun goes off, two neck beards, one older guy, and an early 20's something in a visibly old leather bomber jacket and a Ruger hat.
>Of all of them, my money is on the Ruger guy.
>They all get set up, start pulling out guns. One neck beard has a glock, so does the older mexican lady.
>Other neck beard has a MP Shield, and the old guy has a Model 10 .38Spcl
>The Ruger guy though, pulls out something that made his instructor stop and tell him that cheating normally isn't allowed.
>Fucking old, fucking PRISTINE Colt Gold Cup with 185gr Exposed Lead Semi-Wadcutters.
>Test starts, old guy passes just fine, so does the neckbeard with the glock. Mexican lady bombs, and the other neckbeard with the shield missed by a narrow margin.
>Ruger guy pulls the 3 targets he used for the test down. On two of them, there's only one hole dead center of the 10point section.
>The last one, there's one, slightly larger hole dead center of the 10point section.
>250/250.
>Catch him before he leaves. I compliment him on his gun, and his cheating skills. He laughs, waves it off, thanks me then vanishes.

TL;DR, CHL test group shows up, and one guy decides to cheat by bringing a Match Grade 5" 1911 with match ammo, proceeds to get a perfect score where everyone else either bombed or scraped by.

Pic related, the exact model. MkIV Series 70 Gold Cup National Match.

FUCK You OP, similar thing happened to me a while back when I was shooting my glock. I wouldn't be surprised if it was me. But Let me explain to you what happened.

> I recently was getting into reloading
> Was working up a few recipes with Round nose plated bullets and Hornady Hollow point bullets.
> I was using the only gun powder I could find, hence why I was trying to figure out what worked and what didn't work.
> First recipes I found online wouldn't eject the slide, so I slowly started adding .05 grains of powder gradually.
> They worked fine with my Round nose plated bullets, the Hollow points are harder to reload.
> A few of the bullets went in too deep, not too deep but deeper than I meant to seat them.
> I didn't realize the deeper the bullet the bigger the pressure.
> When I went to shoot the reload I made it fired, ejected the case, and cycled the next round.
> It slammed the new round deep into the throat, pulled trigger, striker didn't hit the primer... tried to eject round, it was jammed.

I proceeded to try to work out the round that was deep into the barrel. Finally got it out, put aside those hollow points, and went back to shooting. Lesson learned.

True story

Two years ago, I was a rangerunner for a BSA Summer camp in PA. The guy in charge of the whole shooting sports area was none other than Eric Frein, before he shot those two cops. He was actually a really cool dude, and one of the nicest guys I've ever met. One day, while on the rifle range (firing the "black savages," aka Savage Mk.IIs), I was reloading blocks of ammo when Eric tapped my shoulder, and pointed to a 270lb kid holding his rifle completley above his shoulder, like a rawket lawnchair. I walked over to him, told him how to hold it correctly, but within a minute he was back to his over-shoulder stance. Somehow he managed to get all 5 rounds on paper, from 25 feet away.

If I ever do celebration shots or shoot in the air it would be for:
Gun has blanks in it
A warning shoot for someone before I shoot them
In the middle of fucking nowhere.
That's it.

>>28505931

>>28503498
is there any evidence that these airsoft guns could be converted into machine guns?

my only guess would be using the receiver and replacing every other component

>>28505939
Was that the same cunt that had anger issues and a got kicked out of there conceal carry class and was threaten everyone in the thread and was a tripfag?(worst part)

>>28505950
Don't think so.
There was that other gem in the ihops and the guy dropping bullets in front of the guy who stole his unattended phone, then he was asking for legal advice due to being denied to leave by the manager while police was called. I think it was also posted on reddit as well.

While the AK is a fine and retardedly simple gun make sure you try one before you buy one. Afterwards if you liked it get it. If not maybe pick a lesser gun like what >>28505936 said until you're comfortable, then move up.

>>28505786
Could be an ATV or utility vehicle. You try moving 100s of pounds of freedom, on the land you own. Oh wait you only get half an acre and only 2.7 lbs of freedom with the right permits.

You never shoot in the air
You never point your gun at anything you don't want dead
You keep your finger off the trigger until you are ready to fire
It's that fucking simple

>>28504755
Thanks for bringing this up, I have noticed it. When I shot 6 but thought I shot 5, I line up the shot and right before the hammer drops my hands start shaking.

I just need more practice. I'll start shooting .38s until I can get the technique down.

Not a Derp Range Story, but I got a question, I was reading some of these, and I don't shoot much and I don't go to the range much but...

What's a good grouping for 30-06 at 100 yards? My dad says I'm a natural shot, because I get 1-2" groupings, is that as good as my dad says?

>>28506490
Pretty great m8 1-2" is good for 25 yards offhand imo so 100 even bench rested is pretty great

>>28506510
What does offhand mean? Standing and supporting rifle with offhand?

>have a day off

Why do people hunt with feeders? It seems like the most boring thing ever.

I understand going into the woods / stalking deer -- that sounds like crazy fun. The skill of the huntsman and all that.

But putting out what amounts to traps sounds boring as all get out.

>>28505938
Warning shots are illegal in my state, with good reason.

Aside from that I've never had any scary range moments. Only other thing was watching an old guy struggle to swap out a glock 22 conversion kit.
First time at the range a cool half deaf RO from Nam gave me some tips on handling my AR.

Mfw i'm a rural fag so I don't have to shoot at a range. Also there is a range that is close to me but it has no range officer and is really unsafe. For instance this asshole was shooting an illegally converted full auto Fn fal (he was raided and sent to prison later on) but he was missing the target and shooting over the berm of the range and the bullets were impacting a house 400 yards away. Soon after the range was sued and no Full autos allowed.

One of my life goals is to do the following:

>make life sized nude cardboard cutout of myself standing and smiling with hands on hips
>conceal in black trash bag, bring to range
>walk downrange and set up target, wait until absolute last moment to reveal it
>proceed to blast my crotch out with a look of determination mixed with anger
>speak no words, if anyone looks at me or questions me just smile real big and nod
>once crotch is completely shot out, pack up and leave with no explanation

>>28505783
It's people like you who flaunt their rights that truly piss me off. I can't even get a handgun and when I first got my firearms I was told "it's a privilege, not a right". Then there's dipshits like you who get shitfaced and think it's a good idea to not only endanger your own sorry ass but others around you. It truly is selfish, careless people like you that ruin good things in life for others. The only difference between you and one of the dickheads that shoot up a school is that you don't intend to hurt someone but you show the same lack of control over impulses. I don't even care if this is bait because it has more likely than not happened at some point. From the bottom of my heart, fuck you.

>>28507966
It's nice to have ambition, anon.

>>28505786

What is legal transportation of firearms, fuckwad? There's a legal difference between carrying a gun on your shoulder and stowing it in your trunk.

Even in some rural places walking down the street carrying your guns is a good way to get the cops called on you.

>>28507359
Well when you are hunting for food you'll want to do it the easiest way possible.

Also a lot of people will have feeders, food plots, and other such stuff simply to help the deer survive and grow big. Especially the bucks because they want to shoot a trophy.

Happened to me the first time I went to shoot. Turns out they've had 3 suicides on the firing line over the years. If you are noguns, by yourself and they don't know you I can understand it.

You look like you've got a chick lean going on.
Reach down and tug downwards on your balls. You'll then be in a good lean the right way.

I just want fresh venison. If I didn't put feed out I would just have to walk to my property line where the neighbor has a bunch of crab apple trees. Doesn't take much to get a deer on my property.
